Problems solved by technology

[0004] In the image sensor, the grid layer is used to isolate the filter layer to reduce the crosstalk between adjacent pixel units. However, with the improvement of device integration, the density of pixel units in the image sensor increases, and the size of the grid layer is larger. Affects the performance of the image sensor

Abstract

The invention discloses an image sensor and a forming method thereof. The method comprises the steps that a substrate is provided, wherein the substrate comprises a pixel region and an isolation region, the pixel region is adjacent to the isolation region, and the isolation region surrounds the pixel region; a photosensitive structure is formed in the pixel region of the substrate; an initial gridlayer is formed on the surface of the isolation region of the substrate, wherein an initial groove exposed out of the pixel region is formed in the initial grid layer; and the side wall of the initial grid layer is thinned, so that a grid layer is formed on the surface of the isolation region, and a groove exposed out of the pixel region is formed in the grid layer. Through the method, the performance of the image sensor is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of semiconductor manufacturing, in particular to an image sensor and a forming method thereof. Background technique [0002] An image sensor is a semiconductor device that converts light signals into electrical signals. Image sensors are classified into complementary metal oxide (CMOS) image sensors and charge coupled device (CCD) image sensors. CMOS image sensor has the advantages of simple process, easy integration with other devices, small size, light weight, low power consumption and low cost. At present, CMOS image sensors have been widely used in still digital cameras, digital video cameras, medical imaging devices, and automotive imaging devices. [0003] CMOS image sensors include front illuminated (FSI) image sensors and back illuminated (BSI) image sensors. In a back-illuminated image sensor, light is incident on photodiodes in the image sensor from the back of the image sensor, thereby converting light e...
